On May 27, the San Francisco Office of Labor Standards Enforcement (OLSE) issued its “Proposed Rules Implementing the Family Friendly Workplace Ordinance (as amended).” The OLSE also issued a notice of proposed rulemaking. The city will be accepting public comments through June 16. The Family Friendly Workplace Ordinance (FFWO) applies to employers with 20 or more employees and takes effect July 12.
The city’s Board of Supervisors initially passed the FFWO on Oct. 8, 2013, and it became effective Jan. 1, 2014. The Board of Supervisors substantially revised the FFWO on March 14, imposing mandatory requirements on employers.
